Landing pages, also known as squeeze pages are used to capture leads. Those email addresses obtained from a subscriber came from a landing page which was used to sell a product directly. A landing page is separate from the website and usually, do not share the same design as the website. There is also no navigation menu that links the page back to the home page nor does it work the other way around.
Landing pages are found at the front end of a website where digital products like eBooks, apps, courses and the like are promoted.
With WordPress, you can create a landing page. Theme solutions are introduced with plugin solutions later, and there is a list of landing page creation services that can be incorporated into WordPress.
Begin With a Landing Page Template
WordPress provides a blank theme template to use so you can add landing pages to your WordPress website. For example, Divi has a template called “Blank Page”, and you’ve got access to a blank canvas on which you can create your own landing page. Use the Divi page builder to add a CTA (call to action) for your offer. It’s here you can add text, images, maps, testimonials, whatever you like. Customisable, backgrounds can be changed, and you can save your layout to use with other landing pages.
If you don’t have a landing page template, you can create one yourself with a page template that has no header, footer or sidebar. To see how new page templates are made, check out An Introduction to WordPress Page Templates.
